Low clouds hung around what looked to be a massive peak. The clouds cleared for just a moment, allowing us a glimpse of the snow-capped summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. At over 19,000 feet, Kili is the roof of Africa. We found a pleasant campsite near several Masai villages on the outskirts of Arusha.
For the past three days, we have been in the heart of African grasslands of Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro National Conservation Area. To say that is was amazing would be an understatement. Once we are in Nairobi, we will provide more details.
We are currently back in Arusha and we'll cross over into Kenya later today. After one night camping near the town of Namanga, we will arrive in Nairobi.

Just listened to "Africa" by Toto in your honor. The key line: " ...Kilimanjaro rises like an empress above the Serengeti"
I don't know if you check the CURE web cam, but don't! It's a tad bit cooler there than where you are.
I understand that an old, African remedy for an upset stomach is to eat three, live termines, washed down with a large quantity of fresh, goat's blood. That ought to fix anything that ails you.
Whoops, that ought to be termites, not termines.
I love the postings. I feel like I am right there! Is this the makings of another book?
The antibiotics are working wonders for our stomach ailments, but if they falter in their efficiency, we'll be sure to try your African remedy...
We're looking forward to the snow!!
Another book?...perhaps!
